Development of a total colectomy and ileorectal anastomosis rat model to evaluate colonic metaplasia.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundUlcerative colitis is an idiopathic inflammatory condition of the colon that may require surgical intervention including proctocolectomy and either ileal pouch-anal anastomosis or in the pediatric population, low ileorectal anastomosis (IRA). Often, subsequent physiologic alteration (or colonic metaplasia) occurs in the anastomosed small bowel that includes changes in mucin content, villous blunting, and increased expression of WNT5A, a marker of colonic crypt regeneration. We developed a rat low IRA model to assess and study the development of colonic metaplasia. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe subjected male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 17) to total colectomy and low IRA surgery and evaluated healing periodically by endoscopic evaluation. The ileum upstream of the anastomosis was assessed by hematoxylin and eosin staining, and the mucin content was measured by high iron diamine-Alcian blue staining. Wnt5a transcripts were quantified by reverse transcription and quantitative polymerase chain reaction at the 8-wk study end point.
resultsAlthough no gross endoscopic evidence of inflammation was seen throughout the course of the study, colonic metaplasia in the small bowel was detected in 7 out of 10 (70%) rats at the study end point. In rats with colonic metaplasia, enhanced expression of Wnt5a was evident at the study end point compared to levels in the terminal ileum at the time of surgery.
conclusionsWithin 4-8 wk, the majority of rats subjected to IRA developed colonic metaplasia defined by villous blunting, changes in mucin content, and increased expression of Wnt5a. This model provides a method to study small bowel colonic metaplasia.
